Not completely true--in the old USB 1.0 days, there were a very few USB-to-floppy bridges that could talk 5.25' 250Kbit/sec-speak. SMC had one such and I suspect that multi-chip implementations were also available. But given that few new people understand anything that's not Windows, it would be a futile effort, I suspect.
